well no problem at all
download new rpms from dl page and do

rpm -Uvh aMule...

since your settings and everything importand is stored under /home/user_name/.aMule/ nothing gets lost, dont worry about it :))

Ok, it didn't work :| When I try to launch amule, i get this error:

"Your local has been changed to System Default due to a configuration change, sorry."

That's all. after that, aMule just shuts down...  ?( ?(
